Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:Our study had several limitations. First, we analyzed laboratory-based testing data and could not account for individuals with repeat testing. Second, we were unable to collect detailed socioeconomic data like household size in order to control for confounding factors. Data collection was also incomplete for some fields making further statistical analyses and modeling not possible. However, the strengths of our study were the very large sample size, thus improving precision of our results, the unbiased collection of exposure data prior to receiving testing results, and the inclusion of numerous testing sites across California, improving the generalizability of our results.
Results from TrialIdentifier: No clinical trial numbers were referenced.
Results from Barzooka: We did not find any issues relating to the usage of bar graphs.
